Postcards from Grimethorpe - Music for Brass Band

Grimethorpe Colliery Band

TOCN 0030

When the American composer Jack Stamp was appointed International Composer-in-Association to the Grimethorpe Colliery Band in 2019, he conceived a recording project focused on works specifically written for the GCB, including compositions by himself and Liz Lane, the other GCB Composer-in-Association, alongside other pieces which have played a prominent role in the Band’s recent activities. The kaleidoscopic range of styles to be heard here displays the extraordinary virtuosity of one of the world’s best-known brass bands.

Works:

•Jack Stamp: Handsel Overture
•Vociferation
•David Hackbridge Johnson: Slow March on Gresford - In memoriam E. R. II
•Michael Halstenson: Winter's Moon
•Liz Lane: Serenata; Beyond the Light
•Harrison Birtwistle: Grimethorpe Aria
•Robert Bernat: Dunlap's Creek
